Version: I-Doser 3
"Not sure if it works. You only get one chance to try."
Pros: Cool icon. Interesting idea. The program worked smoothly. It looks like something I MIGHT like to own....
Cons: You only get two different "doses" one to wake you up and one to get you to sleep. You can only try each one once. I tried the sleep dose and it was 24 minutes or so of what sounded like static or Channel 3, white noise/snow from a television along with an electronic pulse that gets slower and quieter as the minutes go by.
I was pretty sleepy when I started the session. I was pretty sleepy by the time it was over; But after sitting for 20 something minutes anyone could get sleepy. The thin is, after it was over with an alert box popped up with this loud buzz that almost gave me a heart attack. That woke me up! It alerted me that the session was over and I could not try it again until I gave them money. (The first dose is always free) Maybe if I had the chance to try this a couple more times to see if it really works I would be more prone to purchase this but I must say, this is the skimpiest trial-ware I have ever tried. I haven't check for spyware. They should come out with a version that really gives the user a chance to see if it works. And they need to get rid of the loud buzzing alert prompt. One session isn't enough to know. Not worth installing unless your just curious.

Version: I-Doser 4.5
Pros: The product itself is easy to use and straightforward enough for anybody to "pick-up-and-play". The effects of the "doses" were varied in my opinion. I gained a few "effects" from the doses but i think a full understanding of what they are trying to acheive would help the "effects" somewhat (their own site provides a great source of information)
Cons: I dont think it's a program you can just use and receive the full effect. Some "preparation" is required, such as a quiet atmosphere, being relaxed and also up to 1 hr of free un-interrupted time.It would also pay to research their site and get a good understanding of what they want to achieve.

Version: I-Doser 4.5
Pros: well, if you need to pay some tuition money on spotting scams....
Cons: Total snake oil. A fluffed up website trying to capitalize on the Binaural Beats thing. Except you can get lots of software for that for free. This looks like a rip off of the free SBaGen except you can't make good tone sets like you can with SBagen or some of the others and you have to pay and pay and pay for crap that doesn't work.

Version: I-Doser 4.5
Pros: In our century of supertechnologies and vanity, it is necessary to relax and restore forces quickly.
Cons: The power and modulation of all people various, therefore the same cards operate on them on a miscellaneous. Everyone should select itself for itself(himself), that it is necessary for it. But it not that was not pleasant to me. It simply remark

Version: I-Doser 3
"Two tries, but have tested several other doses and works well."
Pros: I have been interested in binaural "entrainment" for a long time now, and this is really he first easy-to-use program I have seen that doesnt require a lot of knowledge in the science to make it work. I tried the two included doses, and both worked well. I then went to the store and purchased several doses to continue testing (like 80 cents a dose or something.) Each one worked. Interesting concept, for sure. Also did a full spyware scan and it contains no spyware, and is a very small download.
Cons: The real bad is the length it takes to use a dose. Some were 50min long in length and you cant pause or walk away - you need to listen to the whole thing for it to work. If you have the time to dedicate, and are interested in the whole binaural concept, give it a try. If just a passing interest, may not be for you.
